Very elegant. Usually, a wall gets painted white over which a dark colored stencil is applied. I find that to be 'in your face'. Yours is soft and chic. I would do this! I love it.
Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
I like the blue plant etage. Is it a DIY? If not, any info on where to buy it?
Thanks.
Do you have any suggestions on how to navigate corners when applying the linen texture and the stencil?
I have two questions. First, can you explain "take off and landing technique"? And do you think I could do this over wall paper I primed it first? This is exciting! I really wanted to add some texture to a room but it has 40 year old wallpaper that wont budge and I REALLY dont want to have to sparkle the whole damn wall. Pretty sure this would kill two birds with one stone 😉 thanks a bunch, im feeling inspired
